[92]
Therefore the one thing left, men of
Athens, for those who wish to
get rid of this man, now that they can charge him with a clear and manifest
offence against the laws, is, if possible, to punish him with death, or, if not,
to impose such a money fine as he will not be able to pay. For depend upon it,
there is no other way to be rid of him.
